Pimento cheese in any form is a great tailgate take-along, but add beer and it is perfect game-watching fare. This is great served with pretzels or apple slices, but I also particularly like it spread on a hamburger bun to melt over the meat. The bonus here is that the recipe only uses some of a bottle of beer-you’ll probably want to drink the rest.

Instructions

Cut the cheese into small chunks and put into the bowl of a food processor. Add the pimentos, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, paprika, and hot sauce to taste and process just until it starts to break up and form a paste. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then start the food processor and drizzle in the beer until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape the beer cheese into a container, cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours, or until the cheese is firm and the flavors have melded.

Serve cold. The beer cheese will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 week.
